New DS Talk May Not Be BS
« on: November 11, 2003, 04:17:47 PM »
According to Variety.com, Curtis & the WB Network are very close to inking a deal for a pilot.

Script may be by a Smallville writer.

Great.

Maybe Victoria Winters can be as vapid and one-dimensional as Lana Lang!
BARNABAS: Here at Collinwood, old hates don't die. They lie in wait for the innocent and unsuspecting...

QUENTIN: We're guaranteed to make you believe (spells) exist. Our entire family can be explained in no other way...

Wouldn't be much of a change from the original VW...  ;D

Okay, so VW can be even more vapid and one-dimensional--but with a groovy WB sensibility!

The WB screwed up Batman, The Lone Ranger & Tarzan. I doubt ol' Barnabas has much of a chance--if the pilot even goes to series...

QUENTIN: We're guaranteed to make you believe (spells) exist. Our entire family can be explained in no other way...

Yes but The WB has had many hits over the years. That probably wouldnt have a chance in hell on other networks.  Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Felicity, Dawson's Creek, Angel, 7th Heaven, Everwood, Charmed, and Smallville. 
I love Soap Operas & Comic Books

Actually, for a while, I've thought of Patrick Demsey as Barn, or Quentin.....

Tom Welling, Clark on Smallville, is actually 25, the age Barnabas should be.

Frid did a great job in the role, but he was a middle aged man playing a young man.
WB will cast the show with age appropriate
actors.
Maybe Angelique will be what she should be, a Black Island priestess.

In any event, a new DS will revive interest in the original & keep it on the air.
